My (Third) Book!

Hi,

Sharing with you all here that I wrote a third book! I think some of you may already know (via Instagram, because that’s the only social media I use, although I’m bad at it). The novel is called The Satisfaction Cafe.

This story has lived in my head in various forms over probably the last decade. I was finally able to get it out in the last few years. I’m really proud of it and think it’s the best work I’ve done (though in truth I think all authors say that about their latest work).

It is still a while out before publication, but I’m excited for it. It’s been a difficult last few years, which is probably also why I haven’t posted a lot. I often think about that now, that you really don’t know what people are going through. I think about the stuff I used to get upset about, and judge people over, earlier in my life and feel embarrassed that I did. Life – while beautiful – can also be so hard. I try to remember that, and so wish to be a more compassionate and kind person. And yet, even as I’m writing this, I’m coming off of just having crazily yelled at some woman in a huge SUV who did a weird slow down/suddenly speed up sort of thing as I was trying to cross the street with the kids.

Anyway, I promise I will not inundate this blog with self promotional content, but please do allow me a few more posts on my novel as I head to July. It’s been my personal project and passion for so long. But I’m going to be checking in here more now that I’m through edits, and in a better headspace in general.

Finally, if my novel does sound good to you, I would truly appreciate a pre-order if you can – it’s a big help to me and the publisher! The relevant links to the big online shops can be found here (and linking Amazon directly as I know many of you use). Thank you, thank you. Thank you again. I hope you are all well. And talk soon!
